Hey all,

I've been looking for the information as pertaining to rookie team eligibility for the national event. I can't find the stuff that pertains to the 2005 season, just the 2004 season, and FIRST's website seems to be down at the moment.

So here is the question:

What does my rookie team have to do to get to the 05' national event?

Am I correct in my assumption that we must either win a regional event, engineering inspiration award, or rookie all-star? OR, is it that these awards (if won) will qualify us immediately for the 2006 nationals?

If the previous is true, is our only hope of going to Georgia the tier system? And, being in Tier 1 would mean almost no possibility?

Please clarify for me!
